Using Emacs and Lisp Cooperatively. A post from Bill Clementson's Blog.

Clojure is a LISP implementation for the Java Virtual Machine.

"The goal of this article is to provide a fairly comprehensive introduction to the Clojure programming language."

supports multiple languages but still kinda alpha

Clojure - Functional Programming for the JVM

Clojure is a functional programming language for the Java Virtual Machine with several powerful features for building concurrent applications. In addition, Clojure is fast, robust, and a powerful general-purpose programming language. A dialect of Lisp, Clojure embraces traditional code-as-data philosophy and a powerful macro system, plus some syntactic sugar tailored to Java.

Presents the big ideas in Clojure, a new dialect of Lisp. Assumes basic knowledge of Java but not Lisp.

Clojure is surrounded by hype these days. The word on the streets is that Clojure is the Next Big Thing. It has access to the largest library of code and it proposes a nice solution the to the concurrency problem. Lots more has been said... But I haven't seen a lot of code. So I set out to make a small but meaningful program in Clojure to get a sense of it's potential. I give Clojure two thumbs up, and I think you'll do too. The Mona Lisa Problem The program I present tries to paint Mona Lisa with a small number of semi-transparent colored polygons. It does so by using Darwin's theory of evolution to evolve programs that draw Mona Lisa.

An article describing the basic syntax of clojure

In this article, you will see some of the ways that Clojure addresses the key concerns of OO: encapsulation, polymorphism, and inheritance.

Clojure is a LISP for the JVM created by Rich Hickey.

FlightCaster, a realtime flight delay site, is built on Clojure and Hadoop for the statistical analysis. The web frontend is built with Ruby on Rails and hosted on Heroku. We talked to Bradford Cross about Clojure, functional programming and tips for OOP developers interested in making the jump.

Another critical piece of infrastructure is Cascading; an excellent layer on top of Hadoop that adds additional abstraction and functionality. We definitely recommend Cascading to anyone doing serious data processing and mining with Hadoop.

Persistent Data Structures and Managed References

Rich Hickey

good overview of concurrent data structures, refs and STM in Clojure

Rich Hickey is my new favourite presenter. The bloke is awesome (well except for the mullet you can see in this video)! In this video he discusses time as it relates to variable state, briefly applying it to clojure. What makes it great is his practical focus and his use of a really simple example to get across the point.

This site exists to make it easier to use Clojure rather than Scheme while working through SICP.

FleetDB is a schema-free database optimized for agile development.

"These two seem like an interesting combination. Imagine the possibilities...kill your database, simple POJO applications, free distributed transactions, clustered JVMs with limitless memory...it would make your hair would grow back, you'd get women, and become filthy rich...well...maybe not, but at least you'd have more fun writing software." -- Paul Stadig

This sentence from the article says much: "In my experience, this style of coding tends to reduce the size of a codebase by an order of magnitude, while improving readability." Example from article: "...do not have to code defensively, using a slew of factories, patterns,...you can build a minimal solution and evolve it."

"Many people are looking for the "next big language." The next big language is already here, but it isn't a single language. It is the collection of ideas above (plus probably some I missed) as manifested in Java.next. -- Does the transition to Java.next deserve the name "big"? Absolutely. In my experience, the move from Java to Java.next is every bit as big as the previous tectonic shifts in the industry, both in learning curve and in productivity advantages once you make the transition."
